SANTIAGO CALATRAVA POSTER


This is a poster i found on Calatrava which i feel helps potray his style. I found that this poster is effective in showing not only a part of his style and masterpeice but his perception of thinking about himself.

He has used a one main picture as a watermark background which is effective if you want to try get your message accros more with the use of pictures. He has cleverly placed his information on the bottem left where apart of the architecture is clear so its easy to read. I also noticed he has his information and "quotes" starting from the left hand side and moving across. This is a common style of placement for information in posters. He has used a dull grey/green/blue colour throughout the poster giving his technique's and style a very modern edge to it.

I personally like this poster's layout, but i feel maby the entire picture in the background might be too much for what im thinking of planing out so i might try use lots of pictures without taking up the entire sheet. I wil definatly consider keeping the way he has positioned text, if not adapting to how i need it.


 REFLECTION

My design process has been abit all over the place but i feel is slowely starting to fall into place. Using and understanding augmented reality i feel i am starting to get a better understanding using different methods that can be appraoched within the field architecture.

My architect i chose and who gave me a sight of inspiration was Santiago Calatrava. Known for his spanish modern architecutral concept of design, i have followed a few building concepts he has used in order to reach the stage of where i am now. After doing two enviroments i have decided to expand more on my 1st enviroment. I had a rough idea that i wanted to use square blocks to enclose my enviroment but wasnt sure how?.. a little bit of futher research into how Calatrava had made it work, i had come up with a simple but effective structural design keeping my design inplace.

From some help from my tutor on pin pointing exacly what direction i need to head in, i have a much clearer vision on how my project is heading. I am not exacly the happiest on where im at now but with hopefully see this project through with some achievment.
